Intel Xeon D-1649N vs Intel Xeon D-1529

In this CPU comparison, we compare the Intel Xeon D-1649N and the Intel Xeon D-1529 and use benchmarks to check which processor is faster.

We compare the Intel Xeon D-1649N 8 core processor released in Q2/2019 with the Intel Xeon D-1529 which has 4 CPU cores and was introduced in Q3/2017.

The Intel Xeon D-1649N is a 8 core processor with a clock frequency of 2.30 GHz (3.00 GHz). The processor can compute 16 threads at the same time. The Intel Xeon D-1529 clocks with 1.30 GHz, has 4 CPU cores and can calculate 8 threads in parallel.

The performance values of the processor's AI unit. The isolated NPU performance is specified here, the total AI performance (NPU+CPU+iGPU) can be higher. Processors with support for artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML) can process many calculations, especially audio, image and video processing, much faster than classic processors.

Graphics (iGPU) integrated into the processor not only enable image output without having to rely on a dedicated graphics solution, but can also efficiently accelerate video playback.

A photo or video codec that is accelerated in hardware can greatly accelerate the working speed of a processor and extend the battery life of notebooks or smartphones when playing videos.

Up to 128 GB of memory in a maximum of 2 memory channels is supported by the Intel Xeon D-1649N, while the Intel Xeon D-1529 supports a maximum of 128 GB of memory with a maximum memory bandwidth of 38.4 GB/s enabled.

The Intel Xeon D-1649N has a TDP of 45 W. The TDP of the Intel Xeon D-1529 is 20 W. System integrators use the TDP of the processor as a guide when dimensioning the cooling solution.

The Intel Xeon D-1649N has 12.00 MB cache and is manufactured in 14 nm. The cache of Intel Xeon D-1529 is at 6.00 MB. The processor is manufactured in 14 nm.
